Nice little Casita with all the Amenities

There seemed to be a glitch with the VRBO software, so the host wasn’t certain I was going to be there. Once I contacted them, it was rectified almost immediately. The communication with the host was great. The Casita was very clean, tidy, and had all of the things that were listed in the ad. We were very satisfied with our stay.

Cozy Casita delivered great value

My wife and I were looking for a modest place to base ourselves during the George Anich Seniors tennis tournament that was easy on our pocket book. And we had a dog. This casita fit the bill. Its small but comfortable. The bed was a little small and my wife ended up sleeping on the sofa. Mostly we were out doing things all day, and the casita gave us a nice place to start the day and end the day. We enjoyed sitting out on the back patio and catching up with our reading during one of the few down periods we had. The location is in a nice neighborhood, and it was only a half mile walk to a bunch of great restaurants at El Paseo. The weather in March was perfect.

This property is ideally located inn a residential neighborhood a few blocks for El Paseo. The location is excellent. The property is clean and ideal for two people but don't plan to cook as there is no oven or cooktop. Just as well since the nearby restaurants are great.

Cute and quiet

Everything was just as advertised. Perfectly written instructions for tv’s with remotes. Very organized. We loved our stay and the host was lovely. Due to neighborhood restrictions we were unable to park in front of our rental. No trucks are allowed at all. The car would had been okay but we drove the truck. Still everything was great. Would stay there again.

Two private outdoor areas!

We stayed just over a week. Everything was as advertised. We particularly enjoyed having two outdoor areas to relax and read books. When traveling together for a long time, it’s nice to be able to be apart now and then. 😊 High ceilings made it feel large. Two separate closets in the bedroom plus a dresser gave us plenty of space to unpack. The bed was on the firm side. The couch was comfortable. The location was nice. It was easy to drive around the area. We even took advantage of the public bus system that runs up and down the main drag which is within walking distance.

Private court yard in front and back. Perfect for a small dog. A defined path/walk way between driveway parking and entrance gate to the bungalo would be the only improvement.The hostess was awesome and the interior was all recently updated.

LOVED THIS PLACE

My Fiance and I loved this placed and enjoyed it. Very clean and you felt so at home and comfortable here. Perfect for relaxing. On one night of our stay the neighbors were having a party with a band. Mark was so worried and contacted us, we laughed and thought to ourselves this is great music and we can sit on the patio and enjoy it. Bed was comfortable, it was the perfect home away from home. Everything is close to you also, The Living Desert Zoo is literally around the corner. We went for the day and enjoyed feeding the Giraffes. Thank you guys . Would highly recommend and stay here again. This is a Casita but you can't tell with your own private entrance and your own front and back patio. One major plus was the sliding glass door in the bedroom, perfect for the morning and laying in bed with it open and getting all the cool morning breeze and listening to the birds 🐦 ❤️❤️❤️
